Its the heating season again. I am a Facilities Technician troubleshooting air comfort complaints or heading off complaints if I see heating Setpoints not being satisfied. Thanks for the hopscotch method. Self study has always been my go to in building the skill set. Good short tutorial.

Though I like hopscotching with ground, this is helpful to others in understanding how potential differences work.

Very helpful and clear video. I wish I had that confidence with electrical. Got hit with 220v one day because my meter said the lines were dead, been gun shy ever since.

Getting very proficient using my mult-imeter with your videos. Thank You. Keep Posting.

Nice video, a good refresher for me. I don't work on many electric heat systems but I do work on electric water heaters. This method will make my next electric water heater diagnostic much easier.

Thanks for the hopscotching video. You do a good job with explaining the concept. I would enjoy more of these type videos. I mainly do work on down flow mobile home air handlers and furnaces. Thanks

Wish my school had this. Time to take notes

[lajuanjohnsonbtc]

Thank you for this video. Your explanation was the simplest I have found. Can you make videos showing the other methods?

[jparson]

Great job of explaining Very glad YouTube suggested I would like 😊

Great video

Good vid. Had a no cool call and found that the AC and elements were both being powered at the same time. I suspect a bad board but haven't ordered one yet. I simply disco'd the white control wire from the contactor. I watched your other video but it didn't address how to check for this particular issue

[HsingSun]

Thank you for your video. If I have a outdoor unit, then the air-handler will be different than this video, right?

[stevencarrillo]

Hi there and that had helped me become a better technician.

When checking across the contactor and again at the high limit with your lead on L2 is the meter actually showing power from L1 ( both legs) and when checking the heat element across from the high temp. limit isn't the meter showing L2 to L2. May be over thinking it or really don't get it. I thought L1 to L1 or L2 to L2 would read "0".
